meet the racquet pros

On its tennis journey, The Cliffs has taken a major step by hiring full-time racquet sports directors for each of its regions. This commitment provides hundreds of players, across all properties, with year-round access to the best pros in the Carolinas. Clinics, tournaments, league play and inter-club showdowns are all part of the increased focus on tennis and pickleball.
